Scorpio Weekly Horoscope

(October 23 - November 21)

WEEK OF July 27 - August 02, 2015

Hop back on the friends and family plan, Scorpio! The cozy, intimate vibes will crescendo throughout the week, building up to Friday's full moon in Aquarius and your personal fourth house. You've been so strong for so many people lately—but what about YOUR need for support? You can get so caught up in tending and befriending that you forget to take care of Numero Uno. Slow down. Slip off for a spa day. But above all else, speak up. Unfortunately most other humans don't share your extremely empathetic and intuitive powers. Tell your friends what you need instead of waiting for them to pick up on your psychic signals—which are probably obscured behind your enigmatic aura to boot. Don't worry, People will not mistake your kindness for weakness. What's more likely is that they'll be honored you asked for a hand…especially since they probably owe you one! (Call it "settling the score.") By the time Friday's full moon rolls around, you'll be feeling the love. Big time. Is a change of residence in the stars for you? This full moon governs your domestic sector and can illuminate a dream listing or inspire you to plant the For Sale sign in your lawn. Maybe you've just been dreaming about an Eames chair, Japanese modern dish set or reclaimed wood coffee tables. If the funds are there, invest in something beautiful for your home (or start saving up). An elegant object can bring you joy on a daily basis. The fourth house rules the feminine realm and this full moon can bring some solid senoritas into your universe. Maybe you already met these incredible ladies in early 2015 during one the rare, double-header of Aquarius new moons: the supermoon on January 20 or the one that launched the Year of the Sheep on February 18. Your sister act could become something more official over the two weeks to follow the full moon. Let's hear it for the girls!

Strategic socializing is beneficial for your love life and career this week. Genial Venus is retrograde from July 25 to September 6. From Monday through Friday she will back up through Virgo and your eleventh house of community. Reconnecting to groups from your past can bring more than just a warm-fuzzy reunion. You may find soulful and profitable synergies worth exploring. An old crush—maybe one that never got off the ground—could spark up again during the workweek. From Saturday until September 6, the planet of love, beauty and charm retreats through Leo and your professional zone. You could meet a mate through a work function or simply create more opportunities to bond (platonically) with your coworkers. It's great to be the top performer, Scorpio. But showing up at the office is always more enjoyable if you actually LIKE the people with whom you work. Make more of an effort to break the ice and bond with colleagues. This could get you ahead faster than you know come September. But Venus retrograde also flashes a caution light about blurring too many lines. You can get swept up in the moment sometimes, Scorpio, donning the sex goggles and forgetting that certain boundaries are in place for a reason. Don't take down the team by having a shortsighted fling with another member or put your career in jeopardy by acting hastily on a coworker crush. You don't bounce back as quickly as you dive in, you know. Going "there" can create senseless drama over the next five weeks. Willpower, Scorpio. Willpower.

The best news of the week comes on Saturday when taskmaster Saturn ends a six-week retrograde through Scorpio. Though Saturn has been in reverse since mid-March, on June 14 it slipped back into your sign, bearing down on you with some pretty heavy energy. You may have felt burdened, depressed or suppressed since the summer began. Not that these blues were altogether unfamiliar. Saturn already toured Scorpio from October 6, 2012 until December 24, 2015. When he left your sign during the first half of the year, you felt pretty darn free. But this last encore in Scorpio—which started June 14 and ends September 17—is not letting you dump out the baby with the bathwater. You labored for over two years because you were meant to grow, learn and expand. And you did, Scorpio, even if it was through the School Of Hard Knocks. As much as you might just want to walk away from anything that reminds you of the struggle, that would be such a waste. With Saturn powering ahead through Scorpio from Saturday until September 17, you could reap the rewards of your efforts and even be vaulted into a leadership position that brings prestige and profits. So don't run, Scorpio. For the next six weeks, keep on pushing until you reach the peak of the mountain or that major milestone that you've had in your crosshairs. And take heart. After this, you won't host Saturn again until 2041!
